In your exuastive studies and thourough never ending search for truth, after turning over every stone, what exact evidence, not yet presented, would you need to accept this scientific fact?
A Missing link: "The creature is being hailed as a crucial missing link between fish and land animals—including the prehistoric ancestors of humans." http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/04/0405_060405_fish.html
Of course, we already have the change from apelike - human totally mapped out. http://www.becominghuman.org/
Again, what is it exactly that would prove it for you...be precise or dont answer at all.

NOTICE HOW NO ONE IS ANSWERING THE QUESTION.
WHAT SPECIFICALLY DO YOU NEED TO SPECIFICALLY SEE TO BE CONVINCED. DESCRIBE THE PROOF YOU WANT...SPECIFICALLY!!!!

Those are some really nice drawings and theories. I wish I were an artist. Do you have any hard evidence that any living organism's DNA has changed. I'm not talking about any bone fragments where they fill in the missing pieces with their imagination. If you want to show me proof, then show me one time in history that is recorded that DNA changed. When you can, they will stop calling evolution a theory.

OK...If you do believe in evolution. Let's take it a step farther. You don't think all monkeys are in the same evolution step. I mean it's obvious that chimps are far more advanced than say a lemur. How about humans? Are all races the same? If evolution is progression than some races may be more advanced. After all evolution keeps on going ...Right? Look how some cutures advanced far more than alot of others. Probably a lot to do with more advanced creatures...Right? If you look hard enough you could come up with very strong proof that some humans are indeed more advanced than others....A lot like any other kind of evoulution. That to me would be the ultimate test of evoulution and would definetly prove your point. Otherwise, I think your evoultion theroy is made to fit what you believe.

As a Christian in conflict about what it is I believe:
The missing link is that Christians have so been taught that the story of the bible is true without a doubt, that they cease to use logic that could support their own beliefs. Maybe, the answer is that evolution is true. Maybe God's miracle was the creation of life that led to what exist today? I don't know, nor do you!
Did matter always exist? Was anything ever really "created"? We don't know, we just choose to believe in a greater power. Just as you choose your belief.
Maybe we are all a little right and all a little wrong.

First thing. If we can look at the same evidence and be able to draw the same conclusions.
The problem is in the way we all interpret the facts. And why do we interpret facts differently? Because we start with different presuppositions. These are things that are assumed to be true, without being able to prove them. These then become the basis for other conclusions. All reasoning is based on presuppositions (also called axioms). This becomes especially relevant when dealing with past events.

What evidence? There are suppositions and theories. Even the human eye is thousand times more complex than a camera. Yet if I find an 8 megapixel digital camera and claim to have it evolved on its own (and its lifeless even), you would think I am crazy. You will insist there is a designer and maker.
What evidence . . .human gesturing and ignorant guesses more like. I am a believer in Science . . .evolution is not science.

I would need proof of the nonexistence of God, but until then, every scientific theory INCLUDING God is on the table.

No, they are those who favor to entice close to lengthy superseded lack of recognize-how and refuse to seem at any evidence that refutes their loved and incorrect beliefs. there is overwhelming evidence already, yet they don't favor to seem at it.

These people would need a live half-man, half-ape tell them after swearing on the Bible.
